Microsoft launched their new Surface Pro to a mixture of very positive and very negative reviews. There seems to be very little in between As both an Apple enthusiast and Microsoft optimist, Iím pretty excited. While the reviews have been mixed, they mostly agree on the merits and demerits. Microsoft Surface Pro represents a new category of device. Not quite a laptop and not a tablet either. It is, in truth, a reimagined vision for a new era of cloud computing and touch interfaces.
